[bodytext] => He listens now As he does the things he always does Praying to overcome This endless waiting He listens to the sounds outside Would they ever come closer? Let the handle turn For once Let the phone buzz He drinks now Alone, singing As he moves around Posing for the phantom eyes The lights come down flashing Hands all around clapping The speakers are cheap but They keep the show going So he sleeps He keeps the door open For him loneliness is a blessing But he weeps even so Whatever problems he has He keeps them for showing All the things he does now He keeps them for selling In his heart he knows He doesn’t want to be found But nevertheless he wishes And yet again he knows The best wishes are The ones that won’t come true For they feed him They feed the music he likes The people he hangs around There is a plan He’s on it for a while now The last show for this phantom crowd With all the pain he breeds All the tears he collects in jars He’s going to shine Shine for a last time.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
